Chapter 32: 802.1x Port-based Network Access Control

Section VIII: Port Security

Figure 38. Authenticator Port in Single Operating Mode with a Single

Client

The example in Figure 39 on page 371 illustrates a configuration that uses
the piggy-back mode. Multiple clients are connected to an authenticator
port on the switch through an Ethernet hub or a non-802.1x-compliant
Ethernet switch, such as an unmanaged switch. The operating mode of
the authenticator port on the AT-9400 Switch is set to Single and the
piggy-back mode is enabled. This allows all clients to forward packets
through the port after one client logs on.
